  • Manage hydrologic & hydraulics modeling, analysis, and design deliverables.
  • Perform hydrologic & hydraulic analyses and prepare design calculations and drawings using HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS, and AutoCAD Civil 3D.
  • Assign and manage technical tasks with an emphasis on quality, efficiency, and schedule and budget adherence.
